Yevette Lynn is a photographer and author based in Kingsport, Tennessee.
Through Yevette Lynn Photography, she builds her practice around a single premise: your image speaks before you do. Her commissioned work centers on editorial headshots and brand portraiture for executives, founders, and organizations — photographs made to carry authority across leadership profiles, publications, and press. She also maintains an active fine art practice, including Appalachian Backroads®, a long-form study of overlooked landscapes across the Appalachian Highlands, with work placed in corporate, hospitality, and private collections.
That work rests on an unusual foundation. Yevette Lynn spent two decades as a C-suite executive in business development, advising more than 2,000 companies on strategy, financing, branding, and growth — work that helped launch 118 businesses, create or retain more than 2,800 jobs, and form nearly $50 million in capital. She has been named an SBA Women in Business Champion and a State Star by America's SBDC. She holds an MBA and is a John Maxwell Certified Coach. It is a career spent watching how credibility is actually built — and how often capable people are underestimated for how they present rather than for what they can do.
She writes from the same place. Superwoman Smarts: Activating Leadership, Substance, and Strategic Presence argues that presence is a business asset, not a vanity project, and that the difference between being overlooked and being trusted is rarely dramatic. It's deliberate. Her earlier books, Startup Savvy and the first edition of Superwoman Smarts, were published under the name Aundrea Y. Wilcox.
She works from a studio in downtown Kingsport.
